    Yeah, I’m pretty sure it’s older than me and I turned 41 the day before yesterday 😅

      The philips circle logo on there is the black version that they stopped using in 1968. If I had something that worked for that long I think I’d have a funeral for it.

        Oh wow, really? You sure they didn’t retire it in the US then and in Europe later?

        Either way, I’m too poor and environmentally conscious to throw out anything that still works 🤷

        …which this does again. Found out after some swearing, trial and error that re-attaching the knob was actually quite easy!
